New Bamboo Car Seat

I have never seen this before, but my mum was telling me that I used to sit on one of these like almost 30 years ago. Here you can see what this car seat look like, and I know you can say that huh, this is not safe baby can easily climb out from there! Yeah yeah... but for my mum or you could say, old grandma prefer this. I positioned it on the back centre of the car; but my mum was telling me usually they positioned it at the front seat!??! OMG! I would just say one has to drive slowly and only for a short distance if they were to place a child in here.

Here you can see how my baby sit in it! She kind of love it as she stay still and does not move around. her legs are not hanging out but actually stepping on the seat. I guess older baby like her can fit into this car seat but definately not for a newborn!

My Wooden Tub Story

Oh yes I've got my wooden tub! Surprise me the tub that I got was actually on Mega Sale promotion! Damn I'm lucky..... I fell straight away for the tub and the price is good too! I couldn't belive it myself. Well will post some pictures here once I got it install properly. Hahahha!

Well, of course it's not made in Japan and not like an Ofuro tub but it serves the purpose to me as I got the wooden tub I want and also a soaking foot small wooden tub as well. Hurray! It is actually made in Taiwan, or so the seller told me and the slight disadvantage is that the tub must be soak in water all the time so the wood will not crack. Pray to god this won't happen! That is why the tub only cost me RM500. That's the WOW factor there!

Then recently, I stumble upon a shop that sell wooden bath tub too....... why I wanna mention here is because the shop is actually selling all sorts of buddhist praying stuff like joss sticks, praying altar, sandalwood, some feng shui stuff and suddenly I saw this wooden tub hiding at the back! I was like whoa..... how come they sell this kinda thing in a shop like that??!?!?

Excuse me, I search high and low for the tub and after I bought it then I stumble on these tubs laying around in the shop.......... come on man!

Well no doubt, I still like what I bought because of the price; and I do hope it lasts for at least few years.

First Mothers' day

My first Mothers Day celebration with my lil' bean wasn't very smooth! She was fast asleep during lunch time and dinner time! Hmmm........ the most interesting part is; I am force to wake her up twice as in Lunch and dinner time. Now I will tell you why, because I normally will wait for her to wake up by herself, as I think she's more important than me and no more me, me and me but baby, baby and baby.
Now during lunch hour which is like around 1pm, I am forced to wake her up because the Earth is moving under my feet, as in EARTHQUAKE! My house is shaking, I feel like fainting as well, so quickly without any hesitation, I wake her and carry her almost ran down the stairs! Luckily I do not live high up in the apartment! Seriously no joke, and later I found out that off the sea near the North of Sumatra had again been strike by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake! Hmmm.... this is the third time I am experiencing earthquake in my apartment. Guess have to pack my disaster bag soon!
Now during dinner time we have to go visit grandma's place and again she fell asleep! So I have to again pick her up and go to grandma's for dinner and she wasn't really awake and of course she's kinda bad mood!

So this is how eventfully I passed my First Mothers' Day!

Reflective Mirror

This is the reflective mirror I bought. Hubby was totally against it at first because he said I might give myself an excuse of driving out alone with baby. (It's a near faint situation for him.)

Well.... what I think is I cannot always stay at home with baby all the time although I am a full time mother. One day she will grow and I will definitely need this tool. I think it is wise to have one just in case I need to drive her around someday and this mirror is useful. Even though now my husband drive me and baby most of the time; he can also use it to view what his child is doing at the back of the car. Oh.. ya baby is sitting rear facing so this mirror is useful.

Starting a new life soon!

It's been 20days past since my baby's born. I think I am having a panic attack soon. Well, I'm in a confinement centre now, most of the time I just eat and sleep and feed baby, that's about all. It's good life here in the centre; but as times goes by I am starting to feel panic as I will be on my own very soon. Well, short to say I will be a full-time mommy soon, I guess that's when the real thing starts to hit me!

First of all - I think there's not much help around from parents...

Secondly - I am new to all things.... suddenly feel like an idiot! Hah!

Thirdly - I am practically on my own! Gosh lots of things happening at the same time!

Forth - I think I will go crazy if baby cries out loud!

Although I am most excited in this big project, but I am all nervous as well as I do not know what's coming and I couldn't really prepare much! Ouch, I am stress!

Hopefully all is not that bad and hopefully I can cope........ well. :)

Suddenly, through birthing a daughter, a woman finds herself face to face not only with an infant, a little girl, a woman-to-be, but also with her own unresolved conflicts from the past and her hopes and dreams for the future.... As though experiencing an earthquake, mothers of daughters may find their lives shifted, their deep feelings unearthed, the balance struck in all relationships once again off kilter. ~Elizabeth Debold and Idelisse Malave

Oh My God........ Diabetes!

It has not cross my mind that this day will come........ Diabetes! I find myself in a kind of denial. I love chocolates and sweets but did not ever occur to me that I'll have diabetes! Well, maybe the culprit is that I'm pregnant, but then again it worries me if this will last after the pregnancy! OMG, hopefully I am not going to have this diabetes for long..... as the doctor says it's a mild one but still there's a possible attack in future if I do not take care of what I eat though! Surely, there's a metion of inheritance from my parents and found out my mum did had it while she was pregnant too and that it did not last. I was more please to hear that than anything else. Indeed, I have a sweet tooth and no matter how hard I try, chocolates keep on pops up in my mind! Dear me!

Into My Third Trimester... new hope!

Last few weeks I have been on a rollercoaster of events that makes me worry sick of my condition, but am glad it's over now.

I have been admitted to the hospital for some minor bleeding! I was worried sick for the sake of my baby. So the conclusion is I have been walking around too much and done some carrying of boxes around my house. Hmmm... I am suppose to stay on bed rest for at least two weeks before I could move around freely again. Guess from then onwards I am not suppose to do any work that put on too much stress to the body. In other words, I am being too active during pregnancy.

Well, now instead of doing some things like cleaning and packing stuff, I am suppose to just lying on the bed, watch stupid movie series, eat and sleep. Boring stuff...... indeed!

Am really getting sick of all this now...... and I have like so many weeks to go. Ah well... I am now walking more often although I get back ache after that, but I don't mind as long as I can go out of the house. I seldom go out much as I am not allow to drive yet; so I became more fairer each day!

Now am concentrating on doing some excercise that will ensure me an easy labour and also researching for my baby's name. I thought it would be easy but seems like it's not so. Hopefully ina few weeks time I'll manage to come up with a few options! LOL....

Chicken Skin!

Oh my god! I just realised that I had this skin disease called Keratosis Pilaris! Keratosis pilaris (KP) resembles goosebumps in appearance, but is characterized by the appearance of small rough bumps on the skin. Primarily, it appears on the back and outer sides of the upper arms, but can also occur on thighs and buttocks or any body part except palms or soles.

It is a kind of hereditary skin disorder. Ah well, it's not as big deal as it seems but I need to really find out who I inherit from!?! I now have to constantly apply moisturizers and reduce on bathing in hot showers! Well I do really hope it'll go away soon, it cannot be cured but will just eventually go away. *sigh* I now can sleep well, have been having sleepless night about it for a while.

Oh I am not telling you where in my body part has it right?
